Nice, but your side skirts will reveal that it used to be a 1.0
Let alone side strips, rear spoiler

Oh and the abs pump
Basically anything that's different on the GTI you should fit it to yours.

The GTI has electronic differential lock which is controlled by the ABS pump/controller therefore you should fit it also.

Mine went for its MOT recently and passed with no advisories
Even the mechanic who done the pre MOT checks said it's almost unheard of for a 13 year old car especially as it passed last years with no advisories as well so you can tell it's been looked after
My Polo is a 1.4 16v with 100bhp... there quick aren't they and you will have fun with the 1.6. I'm already saving for my next car; possibly a 2.0 Clio 182
